Digitizers from Teledyne SP Devices are ideal for applications that
benefit from custom real-time digital signal processing. Operation is
simplified through optional firmware packages that do not require FPGA
firmware development skills. These firmware options extend the default
signal processing capabilities by providing additional out-of-the-box
application-specific functions.
Configuration and operation of these firmware modules have never been
faster and easier. The latest revision of Digitizer Studio now offers
direct access to firmware settings and processed data output via an
easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI). This is a major improvement
that significantly speeds up firmware evaluation and system-level
integration.
Three firmware packages are currently supported:
-
The FWATD firmware offers multiple levels of noise
suppression that improve the dynamic range so that rarely occurring weak
signals can be detected and distinguished from noise.
-
FW2DDC equips the ADQ7 and ADQ7WB digitizers with
real-time functions commonly used in radio frequency (RF) receivers, for
example, digital down-conversion (DDC).
- FWSDR is similar to FW2DDC but for ADQ14.
Digitizer Studio updates are available free of charge for existing
customers. Contact your local
Teledyne SP Devices representative for details.
